Switching layout - linear or L-shape?
#1
Most people would say bigger is always better but I'm in a quandary. For now, I need to choose one of two areas for an HO shelf switcher.

One is about 13-14 feet long straight along a wall. The other is a 9-ft by 9-ft L-shape also along the walls.

Layout will be protolanced, running contemporary 4-axle diesels, tanks, bulkhead flats, plastic pellet hoppers, and maybe some of the graffiti canvas reefers. Max depth will be between 18-in and 24-in.

Ultimately, I'd like to go around the walls but that's not feasible now. Short extensions for staging *might* be possible. Anybody care to give an opinion on which area you'd use?

Thanks.
